This week's genre: EDM/Rave. BopsReport turns the biggest headlines of the week into a news recap — sung, not read. Every week gets a different genre, so the sound is never the same twice. This week: a blue wave sweeps the midterms as Democrats win control of both the House and Senate, flipping seven Senate seats and more than 40 House seats. James Talarico beats Ken Paxton to become the first Democrat Texas has sent to the Senate since 1988, Gina Hinojosa wins the Texas governor's race, and Democrats take the Texas House. Adam Hamilton becomes Kansas's first Democratic senator in nearly a century, Troy Jackson unseats Susan Collins in Maine, and Sherrod Brown wins back Ohio. Abdul El-Sayed becomes the first Muslim U.S. senator, Chris Pappas the first openly gay man elected to the Senate, and Keisha Lance Bottoms the first Black woman elected governor of any state. J.D. Vance blames the Iran war, Stephen Miller becomes White House chief of staff, Democrats call for new leadership, and the new majority promises investigations, while the push for a national popular vote moves closer. Alaska, Mississippi, and Lauren Boebert's race are still being counted. All the news you need this week, in one song.

"Nobody will ever deprive the American people of the right to vote except the American people themselves — and the only way they could do this is by not voting." — Franklin D. Roosevelt, radio address (1944)
